Chiefs Place Skyy Moore On Injured Reserve

Thursday, October 24, 12:13 PM

The Kansas City Chiefs are placing wide receiver Skyy Moore (core) on Injured Reserve on Thursday with a core-muscle injury. Moore is the latest Chiefs wide receiver to go on IR, which will keep him out for at least the next four games. The earliest he will be able to return from IR will be in Week 12 versus the Carolina Panthers on Nov. 24. Even with KC losing receivers Rashee Rice (knee) and Marquise Brown (shoulder) for the entire season due to injuries, Moore remained without a reception on just three targets in six games played this year before his injury. The 24-year-old former second-rounder in 2022 has been a bust for the Chiefs, catching only 43 passes for 494 yards and one touchdown in 36 games (11 starts) since entering the league. KC acquired DeAndre Hopkins from the Titans this week to boost their decimated receiving corps, and he'll slot in next to rookie Xavier Worthy and Mecole Hardman with JuJu Smith-Schuster (hamstring) injured.

Alec Pierce A Boom/Bust WR5 In Week 8

Saturday, October 26, 2:52 PM

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Alec Pierce has had some big plays this season, however, they've come on few catches. The 24-year-old owns a superb 25.5 yards per reception average thus far but has just 15 total catches in seven games. One of those catches was a 60-yard touchdown back in Week 1 versus the Texans, which is his opponent in Week 8. It was Anthony Richardson who threw him that ball and it will be Richardson under center again this week, while Houston has allowed the seventh-most fantasy points to wide receivers this season. Whether or not that translates to fantasy points for Pierce again seems like more of a roll of the dice with the second-year QB's poor completion rate (48.5%), so view the former second-round draft pick as a boom/bust candidate in the rematch versus the Texans as a WR5.
